Borussia Dortmund winger Karim Adeyemi is being linked with a move to Manchester United, with the Transfermarkt rumour bar currently rating the chances of a deal at 29%.
The 23-year-old, valued at €60.00m, is rumoured to be on United’s radar as the Premier League side continue to scan the market for a left-footed attacker who can operate from the right. Adeyemi is listed as a Borussia Dortmund player with no publicly specified contract expiry date in the available data, leaving open the theoretical possibility that his situation could change and, in time, lead towards free-agent status if no extension is agreed.
Born in München on 18 January 2002, the Germany-Nigeria dual national has built his reputation as a rapid right winger who prefers his left foot, capable of stretching defences and attacking space in behind. His stock has risen sharply in recent years, with his recorded market value progressing from €1.5m at FC Liefering in 2018 to its current €60.00m mark with Dortmund as of late 2025.
Adeyemi’s path to the Bundesliga has taken in several clubs and leagues. After early spells in the youth ranks of Bayern München and TSV Forstenried, he moved through SpVgg Unterhaching’s youth and U17 sides before joining Red Bull Salzburg from Unterhaching U19. A loan to Liefering in Austria’s second tier preceded his breakthrough with Salzburg in the Austrian Bundesliga, from where he earned his switch to Dortmund in Germany’s top flight.
The rumour of a move from the Bundesliga to the Premier League therefore represents another potential step in a career that has already traversed two major European leagues. If a transfer to Old Trafford were to materialise, it could provide Adeyemi with a new platform to enhance his reputation further and test his development at one of England’s most scrutinised clubs.
